interview

I applied to the Pediatric Nurse Practitioner program at Oregon Health and Science University and just heard I've received an interview. Any specific questions I should prep for?? I know one could be the difference between PNP and pediatrician, but curious of any beyond that. Eek, nerves are...

Dec 15th was the first..... Roughly when should we hear back this time?

I previously posted this on CollegeVine’s community forums but I believe I can receive a more detailed, experienced response since everyone seems to have “been there, done that” when it comes to college applications on SDN—Thank You!! First and foremost, here is a piece of the email I received...

Hi, anyone has an interview date at UCLA Olive View prelim medicine scheduled for 1/6 that could be swapped to 1/5? It would be mean that I could actually interview at the program and I would be eternally grateful. Happy to buy you postmates dinner and boba. Thank you!!

Hi

I got an email this past week from MUSC saying they would be sending emails out in mid-December for January interviews. I wanted to make this thread to see when people hear back from them!

I'm a non-US IMG, potentially no visa needed, with good scores (step1 255~260, step2 265~270, CS first pass) applying for neurology&radiology this year. YOG 4 years, has a bunch of first author publication in decent journals. Got some great interview invitations from advanced residency programs...

Hello! I was given an opportunity to interview with UIW's Optometry program. I was curious if anybody has interviewed with them already. If so, what are some nuggets of advice and questions I should expect from the interviewers? Thank you very much!

I just received an invite to interview at UBC! Was wondering if anyone else received and if anyone else has done their virtual interview before how was it and what was it like!

Hi everyone, I wanted to see if anyone else completed their interviews and math test for the University of Maryland-Baltimore School of Pharmacy. If you have done those things, how long did it take to get a response from the admissions team regarding their decision? Faculty interview - 11/02...

Has anyone had an interview/ heard any information on the interview format for Rosalind Franklins DPT program? I have an upcoming interview and was wondering if they were sticking with the MMI format virtually this year? Thanks!

Hello all. Sorry to add another "how competitive am I"-style post to the pile, but I'm freaking out rn. I am a non-US IMG, graduated 2018 and have been working as an ER doc non-stop since then. My step 1 is a flat 230 and CK flat 220 (I know... didn't study that hard). I have 4 LORs, all from...

I have seen several applicants making posts to the effect of "send an application update in order to bring your name up to the top of the pile," so you'll be more likely to get an interview. Is this commonly done? I know, I know, don't send an update unless you have something meaningful to...

I interviewed at a school that highly values basic science research (think WashU/JHU). I had very strong basic science research experiences from undergrad, which I discussed in the interview. When the interviewer asked if I would be interested in doing similar research in medical school, I...

I just completed my first interview today -- a traditional interview with a medical student + MMI. I think I prepared well, felt relaxed going in, smiled, and generally did my best. But I feel like I could have done much better, even though I cannot pinpoint exactly what I would have done...

I have a cat, who I love more than anything, but I'm worried that she might mess up my virtual interview. I have been taking virtual classes and she has, for the most part, left me alone besides meowing randomly or asking to be pet. She mostly sleeps. However, if I leave her in the living room...

I know it is still early in the cycle, but I saw that a lot of Texas schools have started giving out II in late July - August and many spots through October/November are filled already. I'm a Texas resident, I completed Texas secondaries in mid-June and the radio silence is really killing me...

Hey guys Just completed secondaries 10 days ago. Been blessed to already receive my first II from a SUNY :) (Am I allowed to say the name of the school or does that go against some type of privacy policy?) Anywho, I can't believe that the earliest date available already is December 1... Jw in...

I suffered from depression and anxiety during medical school. It has now been addressed and managed with medication. I want to be honest if asked about my course failure during medical school and say it was due to the untreated depression. any reason i should not be so transparent? Will the...

Hey guys, interview season's about to come and I guess many of you who're not CODA graduates must be thinking of the same question that I had when I was applying - Does graduating from a foreign dental school mean that it's impossible for me to get into a residency? Hell no! And I'm saying that...

Hi all! I was wondering if anyone knows how interviews for schools will work this year? I've been searching for answers but haven't found anything too helpful...also, Berkeley is doing rolling admissions this year so I was wondering if anyone has heard about how they will be conducting...

I recently applied for the SUNY Upstate EAP program and have been looking around for any information about it. Seems like nobody really posts about this program. Anybody else applied? On that note, any past applicants know approximate stats and figures for the program and the...

I've submitted quite a few DO secondaries, but I'm taking the MCAT in July. Which schools, if any, will be interviewing before receiving MCAT scores?

Hi there, I am currently in limbo after submitting my applications and have been looking into interview attire. Many people say that women should not wear black suits are they are too harsh and formal, and they suggest colors such as navy or charcoal/gray. I was thinking about doing a navy suit...

Exams completed. ECFMG certified. No gaps in between and have remained consistent with work in the health field relative to gaining clinical experience. I have called numerous programs where the program directors/coordinators have straight said over the phone "I have not had a chance to check...

Hi everyone! Has anyone had their interview with KGI's School of Pharmacy? I have mine in a couple weeks and would like to know what questions to expect. Also, in the email it said the interviews would start at 9am and are expected to last until 3pm, and it doesn't seem like the campus tour is...

Hi SDN! I am using a throwaway to get some advice for an upcoming interview. I am a non-trad who had a significant upward trend during undergrad, but sadly I ended up with a 3.3 cGPA and 3.0 sGPA. However, I can very much speak to the challenges I faced (first-gen student, helping parents...

Interviewing at a school soon and have the option of getting a tie and/or pair of socks with the school’s colors and logo. I’m leaning towards socks, but would like to hear thoughts on tie. I would only wear one or the other. Any help is appreciated.

I have an upcoming interview with USC and heard from someone that I'll be asked a series of questions and that I'll have to "do diagrams". There was emphasis placed on the importance of these diagrams, but I am unclear on what they are/what they are in response to. Can anyone explain this part...

I was asked this question during a practice residency interview. I was wondering what you guys would do. Your resident colleague posts negative comments about your other coresidents and your attendings on Facebook. What do you do? What's your answer? Would you have informed the PD of this...

So, due to personal reasons outside of my control, I haven't showered or brushed my teeth or even groomed myself since last year... will this be an issue for interviews??

It's mid-December and I'm getting really worried. Here's the run down. GPA: 3.85; science GPA: ~3.80; MCAT: 510 (Chem/phys: 126, CARS: 128, Bio/Bio: 129, Psych: 127). I finished secondaries mid-September. I got a name change and became a US citizen some time over the summer and neither AMCAS...

So I'm interested in finding out what happens if I were to miss an interview invite that went into my spam folder. My spam folder permanently auto deletes after 30 days and I have not regularly checked it throughout the two application cycles I applied. So technically I have no way of finding...
